and your answers vary each time

You watch a lot of YouTube in class

But its a necessary part of the curriculum

And all your non-Comm major friends are jealous

You learned about Buzzfeed

champlaincrossover.com / Via champlaincrossover.com

and may have been required to write an actual Buzzfeed article for class

You were always walking around lugging camera equipment

and you sometimes looked like this

You had to do an unpaid internship

and you either loved it

or hated it

You were told to watch tv and movies for class

But you had to watch them critically

You always had more papers and projects

rather than tests

Group production projects were always tough

and who was in your group always made a big difference

Editing a video...

Is way harder than editing a paper

But once you graduate

It will be all worth it (after you find a job of course!)
